Good Points
The shredder is very quiet compared to a lot on the market. Stores and transports very easily. The catchment box is a great Idea.

Bad Points
none so far

General CommentsAfter doing some research on the web, I picked the Flymo Pac A Shred Shredder because I wanted a quiet shredder which would auto feed, and was reasonably priced(£169 B&Q). It has performed very well.

I under stand the previous comments about larger pieces after shredding, but this is not a problem for me, as I wanted just to reduce the volume of trimmings before taking to my local tip, rather than composting.

To sum up, If it fits in this unit, it will shred it without effort and very quietly, the pieces will probably take a time to compost, because of their size.
